The main aim of this paper is to investigate to what extent self-reported bullying at Grade 5 predicts later violence, heavy drinking and marijuana use at age 21.
Univariate and multivariate associations between bullying and later outcomes were examined based on a longitudinal community sample of 957 young people from the Raising Healthy Children project.
Childhood bullying was significantly associated with violence, heavy drinking and marijuana use at age 21. These associations held up after controlling for prior risk factors.
Childhood bullying had unique associations with risk of later violence and substance use among young adults. Early intervention to prevent childhood bullying may also reduce other adverse outcomes later in life.
本文的主要目的是研究五年级时自我报告的受欺负经历在多大程度上能够预测21岁时的暴力行为、酗酒和吸食大麻情况。
基于“培养健康儿童”项目中957名年轻人的纵向社区样本，研究了受欺负经历与后期结果之间的单变量和多变量关联。
童年时期受欺负与21岁时的暴力行为、酗酒和吸食大麻显著相关。在控制了先前的风险因素后，这些关联依然成立。
童年时期受欺负与年轻人后期暴力和物质使用风险存在独特关联。预防童年时期受欺负的早期干预措施也可能减少日后生活中的其他不良后果。
